Li Shimin was silent for a long time.

And Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, also seemed to expect that His Majesty would be dissatisfied, so he was silent and did not speak.

Long.

Li Shimin said: "Chen Zhengtai is right. ”

"What?" Sun Fujia looked up in astonishment, but saw Li Shimin looking at him gloomily.

Li Shimin's face was terrifying, and he stared at Sun Fujia deadly: "Is it more than 300,000 guan?" ”

"Thirty four thousand five hundred twenty-two." Sun Fujia replied cautiously.

Li Shimin said: "It's really a whole thing." ”

Then, Li Shimin said: "The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Yushitai dispatched so many people, and only found these? If I'm not mistaken, I should still have stocks, right? ”

"Back to Your Majesty." Sun Fujia said: "It involves a lot of arrears from the Dou family, and after selling stocks and repaying the arrears, there is almost nothing." ”

"Arrears?" Li Shimin stared at Sun Fujia: "Which people do you owe, how much do you owe?" ”

Sun Fujia was calm, and he took out a notebook from his sleeve: "Please look at it, Your Majesty." ”

Song Shu sent it up, Li Shimin took it, opened it, and there were a dazzling array of names and amounts on it.

And none of these so-called creditors in arrears are fuel-efficient lamps, without exception, they are all nobles in the court, as well as well-known families in the world.

Li Shimin said: "If you owe the Cui family alone, there will be 750,000 yuan? ”

"Exactly." Sun Fujia said: "This is still a twenty-three year debt, and now the Dou family is raided, if you don't repay the arrears first, it will become a competition between the Son of Heaven and the people." Therefore, on the side of the Criminal Department, after discussing with the ministers, it is better to pay off the arrears first. Of course, the Cui family owes the most, and other families also have a lot. This Dou family is actually an empty shelf, which is also unexpected by the ministers. ”

Li Shimin only felt dizzy.

I thought about it for more than half a year, and the result was ...... That's it......

More than 300,000 yuan, although it is a lot of wealth, but this is obviously many times less than what Li Shimin expected.

What's even more terrifying is that because Li Shimin has always had huge expectations for the raid of the Dou family, he has been a lot more generous in the past six months.

Speaking of which, the amount of money spent lavishly in the past six months has been more than more than 300,000 yuan.

At this time, he felt that he was cold, of course, he still did not give up, and carefully looked at the details of the accounts, and asked: "What about the land, what about the land?" ”

"The land has been sold." Sun Fujia continued to reply very calmly: "This is considering that most of the Dou family's land is not good land, and when measured, most of the land is mountainous, if it is filled into the government treasury, it will be necessary for the government to recruit tenants to cultivate again, and there will not be much surplus grain to grow, so ......"

"It's a cheap sale!" Li Shimin said: "One acre of land in Guanzhong is sold for more than 300 yuan? ”

It's almost the same as grabbing.

"This ......" Sun Fujia's calm face finally began to change, and he said uneasily: "Most of the buyers are ......"

Of course, Li Shimin knows who the buyer is, isn't it obvious what Sun Fujia means?

Many buyers? Even Sun Fujia can't afford to provoke an existence.

Ultimately......

This Dou family is a big piece of fat? And then a lot of vultures eat it? And none of these vultures is a fuel-efficient lamp? After they've feasted? Left for Li Shimin? It's just scraps.

Of course? If you don't recognize it in the palace, you have to recognize it.

After all...... Too many people involved? From Dali Temple? To the Criminal Department? And then to the Imperial Observatory? And then to the well-known family in the world? There are also many big nobles, even relatives of the emperor and the country, everyone has a share, not to mention these people, even if there are so many ordinary people, the court has to blame the public in order to calm things down!

Li Shimin finally realized that he was beginning to face the problems of Emperor Yang of Sui, and those who had supported the Li family on the throne had now begun to demand payment.

Li Shimin was in a very bad mood, he stood up, stretched his face, put his hands behind his back, paced back and forth a few steps, and then said with a murderous face: "You tell me in person, Sun Fujia, you are the secretary of Dali Temple, I value you so much, I only ask you, are these true?" ”

Sun Fujia's face showed a little bitterness, in fact, he, the Dali Siqing, also felt that raiding the Dou family was just a trivial matter at first.

But later, he realized that the water here was really unfathomable, and one after another people who could not let him provoke gradually surfaced.

At first, he wanted to handle it impartially, but soon found that the officials below him, as well as those vultures, had already been complicit, and when he realized the horror of this place and wanted to get out, he couldn't get out.

At this time...... He only felt that he was a scapegoat, bearing the wrath of His Majesty alone.

It's just those unspeakable things, but he didn't dare to confide in half a word, and glanced at His Majesty in anger, so he ...... He bowed to the ground in shame and said, "Your Majesty, your minister...... The sin of death, ...... Everything is true, there is no mistake in every account, and Your Majesty does not believe it...... It can be thoroughly investigated. ”

Thorough investigation......

Li Shimin squinted at him, what else didn't he understand.

This is obviously saying that no matter how many officials are appointed in the world, nothing can be found.

Li Shimin sneered, he began to miss the time when he was in the army!

In the army, the commander's words are all about his words, and everyone implements them to the letter.

But now, he has become the master of the world, but in the face of all these people, Li Shimin actually feels a little powerless.

Both inside and outside the government and the opposition, they are all smart people, and everyone is too smart, and they will look ahead and backward in everything they do. will think that who may have offended, everyone is walking on thin ice and seeking benefits for themselves.

But only ...... No one took Li Shimin's words to heart.

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more annoyed he became, his face darkened, and he said murderously: "I will investigate thoroughly." ”

Sun Fujia stopped talking, so he bowed: "Your Majesty is aware of everything, and you will definitely be able to return your innocence." ”

Li Shimin said lightly: "You can step down." ”

"Whoa."

The person left, but Li Shimin paced back and forth anxiously, and Zhang Qian on the side was already sincerely afraid.

Li Shimin pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Sun Fujia can't stay anymore." ”

"Your Majesty." Zhang Qian thought about it, and stopped talking.

"What do you want to say?" Li Shimin looked at Zhang Qian with sharp eyes.

Zhang Qian finally settled down: "Slave...... The slave has some words, but I don't know whether to say them or not. ”

Li Shimin looked at him coldly: "Say it." ”

"These days, the slave has quite an impression of Sun Fujia."

"Really?" Li Shimin was thoughtful.

"Dali Temple Qing Sun Fujia, recently, the official voice is excellent, there are many recitals have been mentioned, saying that he is upright, two sleeves breeze, now the government and the opposition inside and outside, all regard him as a capable minister, Dali Temple under his governance, well organized......"

Li Shimin's eyes flashed with something: "Why don't you say it?" ”

So Zhang Qian continued: "If Your Majesty wants to punish Sun Xianggong at this time, it will not only cause a lot of dissatisfaction, but I am afraid that it will also arouse the suspicion of the people of the world!" People will wonder why Sun Fujia, who has such a good official reputation, why His Majesty will alienate and depose him, although Sun Fujia can resign from his official position, but he still does not lose the appreciation of the people of the world, and people will worship him as a person of noble virtue. But...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty's move will only remind people of whether Your Majesty is gradually ...... Gradually...... Slave Fighting Courage...... They will think of His Majesty's gradual fainting, and he can no longer tolerate the righteous men and gentlemen in the court. So...... The slave thought that the matter of deposing Sun Xianggong should be cautious. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but be vigilant all of a sudden, and said: "They have gained so many benefits, so naturally they have to say good things to Sun Fujia." Everyone must praise him, and the people of the world, who do not know what to do, naturally parrot him. ”

Zhang Qian looked at Li Shimin's face again, and said, "So the slave thinks that this matter needs to be cautious." Otherwise, not only will nothing be found in the end, but you will bear notoriety. His Majesty is the Ninety-Five, and every word and deed is related to the trend of the world...... Slave...... Slave...... These are the words that slaves should not have said......"

Li Shimin sighed at this time, and wanted to say, just ......

But after thinking about it, this breath was really unbearable, he held his breath and said: "Sure enough, it was all expected by Chen Zhengtai, I really don't know if this guy is clever, or if this person has a crow's mouth." ”

After a pause, Li Shimin said: "Summoning Chen Zhengtai into the palace." ”

Zhang Qian didn't dare to slack off, and was busy: "Oh." ”

………………

Chen Zhengtai was hurriedly recruited into the palace, thinking that he was asking about Princess Sui'an's imminent delivery, but where did he think that Li Shimin was as cold as frost.

Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but think to himself, could it be that someone has entered my slander?

No, my Chen Zhengtai's reputation has never been good, and it stands to reason that Your Majesty should have been immune to these slanders a long time ago!

Chen Zhengtai first saluted in a proper manner, and said with a dry smile: "Your Majesty's complexion doesn't seem to be very good. ”

Li Shimin glanced at Zhang Qian.

Zhang Qian understood and immediately took Sun Fujia's recital and sent it to Chen Zhengtai.

Chen Zhengtai saw the words that read: "Check the details of the Dou family", he knew what was going on, and he didn't bother to look at it, so he said: "Erchen was ...... at the beginning"

Without waiting for him to continue, Li Shimin said: "I know what you said at the beginning, I only ask you one thing, why can you conclude that the raid on the Dou family will have today's result?" ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "The manpower used to raid the Dou family is definitely not small, and there must be huge profits in it, and the process of raiding is bound to be protracted." For so much time, it is too easy for anyone to do anything else. But if a person does tricks, he will inevitably feel uneasy, and he will naturally invite others to come, and the final result will ...... It may be that a group of people are gluttonous and tear off this piece of meat. As for the accounts, they are actually very easy to do, and they will not have too much to worry about the culpability, after all...... The wider the involvement, the more jealous Your Majesty becomes, everyone else has eaten it, how can he not eat it? Besides, wealth can move people's hearts. In all dynasties, the imperial court allocated 10,000 yuan, and it is rare to have 1,000 yuan for practical use. It's the same with raiding homes. ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath before he said, "Of course I know what you mean, but what I never imagined was that these people would dare to hit me with their ideas. ”

Chen Zhengtai smiled awkwardly: "Didn't you also check more than 300,000 yuan?" Erchen already felt that this was a very conscientious one. ”

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to be angry, Chen Zhengtai immediately put away the joke and said: "It's just that now that the results are out, Your Majesty can only swallow your anger, all this money has gone into other people's bags, and if you want people to take it out, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky." ”

Li Shimin thought that the silver that belonged to him had all gone into other people's pockets, so he was annoyed, gritted his teeth and said, "What if I am unwilling? ”

"Unwilling to ......" Chen Zhengtai said: "I have to investigate thoroughly, it's just a pity...... It's not easy to investigate thoroughly, because you can't go through the accounts, and the accounts have been prepared for so long, and they must be seamless. There is no way to obtain witnesses, because those who have received benefits are categorically unwilling to come forward to testify. If you want to rely on the law to implement it, it is also very difficult, involving so many people, forcing the law, their understanding of the law is much higher than that of ordinary people. Therefore, no matter who Your Majesty comes to investigate, the final result will be ...... There may not be any way to look it up. If a person has relatives and friends, there will be close relatives and old officials, and any minister appointed by His Majesty will put him on the cusp, even if he can be upright, but can he do it without recognizing his six relatives? ”

Li Shimin agreed with this, and after listening to Chen Zhengtai's words, he calmed down a little, and said: "What Qing Zhi said is not unreasonable. ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Even if Fang Gong comes to check in person, Erchen thinks that he will definitely not find anything." ”

Li Shimin said: "Do I have to endure this breath, this is millions of dollars." ”

As soon as he thought of this, Li Shimin was sad, how many times when he spent money happily, he was thinking, don't I still have millions of dollars?

Can ...... now

Chen Zhengtai said: "It's not completely impossible, it's just that what Your Majesty needs is a lonely minister." ”

"Lonely?" Li Shimin stared at Chen Zhengtai.

"This person must be innocent, he must be honest, and most importantly, he must ...... This person has nothing to do with the people in the court. ”

"That's all?"

"And this person must have the absolute support of His Majesty." Chen Zhengtai thought for a while: "If Your Majesty has a little concern, then this matter may end without a problem." ”

Li Shimin said: "Who is this person you are talking about?" ”

"Deng Jian!" Chen Zhengtai said without hesitation: "Erchen thinks that Deng Jian can try." ”

"Deng Jian......" Li Shimin instantly had an impression of this person in his mind: "This person is usually silent, can he do such a big thing?" ”

"He was personally trained by Erchen, and in the university hall, people call him Xiao Chen Zhengtai, and with him, he can succeed!"
